I was already in similan in january but not in Richelieu that I didn't have the time to do. Will do it probably from february, then I was also thinking about myanmar, but it seems out of price, isn't it ?
Are the boats doing all the dive spots in once in myanmar or only a part of it ? Which ones would you recommend ?
I am not looking for the most luxury one as I am a travelling as a backpacker, so cheapest one if possible as I might be alone. Any recommended price ?
Otherwise I just checked the prices of
http://www.divetheworldliveaboards.com/tp/liveaboard-burma-mermaid-i-prices.php, seriously, aren't they exaggerated a bit ? I spend 3 weeks - 1 month in the maldives for that price.
Are these the only 3 options to get to myanmar, and which one would be the best ? Are all the tour operators doing the same trip ?
